Don't think anyone joining Southampton will give a **** MITO. Players will join Southampton in the knowledge they normally move onto better things. No one joining Southampton is a big name that will join the top 6 anyway, and if they were, it will be because none of the top 6 bidded for them. Southampton normally buy cheap and sell expensive so i don't think anyone will be bothered. As for VVD, its his fault for signing such a big contract without a release clause. In any case i don't see him as the type of guy whos going to kick up a fuss.
you are right but the reality is that player if he's actually any good is going to have his pick of clubs. Look at how many dortmund hoovered up form under lfc noses last summer Southampton will be looking at the dregs... so bast of luck with that. They've proved a bit of knowledge can bring you a pelle or tadic but it can also bring you a claisse. Imagine if you will Romeu who is supposedly only on 60k per week btw is looking at this before he signed up form chelsea... he'd thinking hmmm.. yeah i could prove myself here like but i could be ****ed. Arguably Romeu is the players who'd done most for Southampton last season. Imagine if he'd been put off by something like this and went elsewhere... hmmmmm... Look at lukaku at everton. He thought he was going there for a year... i really think he was that thick... then he'd be off to a top top club and everton priced him out. I suppose southampton might just dig in and rely on total idiocy form prospective signings and i na year all this will be forgotten.
Really surprised you're coming out with this nonsense. It's the kind of **** Astro posts when he's sulking!
And romeu as i pointed out? cheslea bought him. You are right though VVD signed a 6 year deal and that was basically stupidity I remember fabregas signing similar at arsenal when 18 or 19 and being trapped by wenger. I remember us giving kirkland a 7 year deal and regretting it Length of contract is as important as actual wages per week in many cases and a delicate balance.
Nah, that's a meaningless statement. By what criteria? You can't just keep pushing the bar higher and then calling that the standard, that's a self-reflexive argument.
Its not 10 past 11 and i've not actually done any... and i MEAN NOT ONE THING. but thats another story.
Thanks for the transfer advice but I think we'll survive. Lloris; Trippier; Walker; Alderweireld; Dier, Vertonghen, Wimmer, Davies; Rose - the best defence in the PL cost less than Citeh will now buy Van Dijk for........and still leaves enough to buy Dele Alli twice over.
poor hugo.. a career wasted then you've quoted a bunch of nobodies alderweirld you robbed of saints after he flopped at atletico and nearly got done for it. you have to get lucky once in a while How long did you get alii to sign up for btw? when real come calling for him... 6 years as i recall. the third contract shovelled at him in 18 months. the poor child hasn't realised yet he's signed away his best years and any shot at silverware yet...
You are forgetting the axiom: "There is always a sucker" the reality is saints need to keep as much together ti la new manager comes in and they can find thier legs. VVD might go in january next year for example or the following summer but they do not want to hand over what amounts to a pile of ****e at centre half.... Caceres, stevens and yoshida yeah?
btw.. for those who insist on saying the window is not even open yet city just signed their new keeper for 35mil the only detail is someone faxes a registration on july 1. so stop saying windows is not open.. its irrelevant. 3 weeks to start of preseason. LFC plans are in tatters
Everyones been schooled by liverpool. Liverpool are not going to be taken to the cleaners and clubs will not be making any money from Liverpool!
